Thanks Janis and I thought I was getting somewhere. So the 250 is crap the same with the 300. GREAT

Islander thanks very much for the objective info. Is it possible to PM me his details so that I can get intouch when I get back to the UK?

The 640 FALCONs we have have been good boats. They lasted quite well with one having 170 hrs on the engine and sailed all over the Aegean in varried weather conditions (some extreme). However, because they are bow light (580kgs with engine) on head on waves (over 1/2 mtr) they bang quite a bit even if you do 15 knots, although they are very good in following seas and waves on the side aft or forward.
We had a few customer complaints about the ride (if you can call these complaints) and we decided to make a change. The choice is between the Ballistics and the RIB EYES. But Ballistics seems to be coming as a favorite.
